I will miss your big smile! You are my “Big Brother”!! I was recently reconnected to Mikey via FB and we were talking about getting together… He was the fraternity “big brother” at CSULA. Yes, I had lots of fun memomries with him! Went to TJ weekend before the exam, hung out at the pizza place, etc. Heaven is the perfect place so I am sure you are having fun there with Brian Sieber.
I miss you and rest in peace!
